    sony a5100 overheating causing terrible video quality

    The overheating is the main CPU processor not the sensor itself. Hot air rising off the sensor sounds quite insane.

    Sony a6300- why do photos come out lighter after they are taken?

    Generally this is DRO. Turn it off.

    Is this degree of moire on an a6000 normal?

    Kind of odd. The a6000 has an AA filter so.. technically this should not be happening. I have never noticed my a6000 doing anything like that. But yes, that lens is unusually sharp if that is a %100 crop. In fact, WOW!

    Photo/Video Editing workstation, ECC vs CPU...

    Far out man. Glad you took this to heart. I actually own a computer business and serve thousands of customers. I know this stuff like the back of my hand. At the end of the day you will save money and end up with a faster computer!

    Photo/Video Editing workstation, ECC vs CPU...

    You misunderstand a bit. The 4.5Ghz cpu will be silent, no noise. Also the latest gen is very very cool running. I mean its not even worth worrying about! And this is not an overclock that is even close to being unstable. I am talking months of uptime if you so desire. this kind of thing

    Photo/Video Editing workstation, ECC vs CPU...

    Evening. So yeah, if you are not running mission critical stuff, where any downtime costs $$$$, ECC is not necessary at all. A proper Intel prosumer system should be near or %100 stable. Keep in mind the Video card actually is the most crashing part of any computer. So I would definitely go...

    New Powerful PC for lightroom 2016

    Nothing you want to upgrade to will be much faster. Lightroom is single threaded which means buying a Xeon wont help at all. In face a Core i7 will be faster.

    Sharpness question: kit or 16-70z level sharpness

    Too much post processing to know.. I could be wrong but that is what my eyes tell me. Also I would be fairly disappointed if this was my lens and those were what I had to print. Im thinking 1 and 2 are kit and 3 is zeiss.. BUT the 3rd one is not great.

    a6000 - just how bad is the 16-50 on it?

    The worst thing about the 16-50 is the aperature. It just doesn't give very much out of focus blur bits that are pleasing. Yes it can be done but it isn't like a F1.8 lens at all. Also, quality control means many samples actually wont resolve very well.

    A7 bricked after updating to firmware 3.1

    Same here. What worked right off was using a different computer.

    Cosina Voigtlander 50mm f1.5 lens flare

    holy crap! Looks like the lens tried to burn a hole through the sensor.

    are we?????

    Yes. These cameras are SO much better and more advanced, sharper, more dynamic range, more automatic. Pick something and then just use it. Be a better photographer with a small amount of gear. Remember a camera does not take photos. People do.

    Major focusing issues ... Any Advice from people using the A6000?

    The kit lens is not that sharp of a lens. It is ok for the price (~$150). The photo is relatively sharp. You will need to use F8-F11 to get more depth of field to get the same look as a cell phone.
